Telenor Pakistan Corporate Affairs Executive Vice President, Irfan Wahab on the occasion stated, “Mobile space in Pakistan is intensely competitive and the low average revenue per user (ARPU) levels combined with acute power shortages add to the challenge. As we started planning for our future growth, we aim to choose our technology infrastructure and solution partner, carefully,” he added.
